You complained, we listened!
Many may have noticed that we had placed a hold on shipments of the Stealth water-blocks in the past 30 days. Looking at the public reaction upon release of the block, we realized that we needed to reduce its pressure drop, and improve on its performance to beat the reigning champion, the MCW60. Well, we are glad to announce that these two goals have been met, and we will start shipping the Stealth Revision 2 by the end of next week.
Improved thermal performance (please read also: http://www.swiftech.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=188), and drastically reduced pressure drop where accomplished by modifying the cavity design and applying a bow to the base plate.
This will be the first production water-block shipped with a markedly convex base plate on the market. |

Thank you for taking heed and acting accordingly.
Looking forward to undo three hours of mounting MC14/21s to fit your new baby. |

Gabe,
Wouldn't really call it that, we are are partners in this.
What better way to test a product than in the real world.

That's great news!
Such a shame for me though, because I got real excited I scored the last one in stock at petra's just this past week. Too bad it's been in my loop for 24 hours, now I don't know what to do  |

I agree. Less than a week, its a shame. I'll give you a $40 credit against your next factory direct swiftech purchase.

| Looked at the store front and it isn't saying anything about the version 2 Stealth. If I placed an order on Monday would that automatically be filled as a version 2, or would I need to specify that I want to wait for it's release? |

If it comes from Swiftech it will be Rev2, we haven't had the Rev1 for a while now.
